The Most Gruesome of Boating Accidents

If you've ever seen a propeller strike accident, you want to do everything
in your power to prevent another one. They can be the most gruesome of boating
accidents. Anyone in the water around a boat—a swimmer, scuba diver,
fallen water-skier, or someone who's fallen overboard—is a potential
victim. Many propeller accidents are caused by operator inexperience, incompetence,
negligence, and intoxication. However, most accidents can be prevented if operators
follow a few simple safety practices.
